So after being banned from The Oscars by the Academy because they were worried he might break tradition by actually doing something entertaining, Sacha Baron Cohen was given the go ahead to show up on the red carpet dressed up as his character from his upcoming film The Dictator, where he rewarded their trust by dumping an urn full of Kim Jong Il’s ashes all over Ryan Seacrest‘s tuxedo. HA! Here’s the video via TMZ, although it doesn’t really answer the question of what those ashes really were … speaking of which, has anyone seen the fat guy from Borat anywhere?
Sacha Baron Cohen took shameless promotion to a whole other level on the red carpet of the Oscars tonight — not only did he show up dressed as his character the upcoming movie The Dictator … but he spilled an urn filled with fake ashes of Kim Jong Il all over Ryan Seacrest on live television.
